Liability

Baby really hurt me
Crying in the taxi
He don't wanna know me
Says he made the big mistake
Of dancing in my storm
Says it was poison
So I guess I'll go home
Into the arms of the girl that I love
The only love I haven't screwed up
She's so hard to please
But she's a forest fire
I do my best to meet her demands
Play it romance, we slow dance in the living room
But all that a stranger would see
Is one girl swaying alone
Stroking her cheek
They say: You're a little much for me
You're a liability
You're a little much for me
So they pull back, make other plans
I understand, I'm a liability
Get you wild, make you leave
I'm a little much for
E-a-na-na-na, everyone
The truth is I am a toy
That people enjoy
Till all of the tricks don't work anymore
And then they are bored of me
I know that it's exciting
Running through the night, but
Every perfect summer's
Eating me alive until you're gone
Better on my own
They say: You're a little much for me
You're a liability
You're a little much for me
So they pull back, make other plans
I understand, I'm a liability
Get you wild, make you leave
I'm a little much for
E-a-na-na-na, everyone
They're gonna watch me disappear into the Sun
You're all gonna watch me disappear into the Sun
